ya just all this hype...its crazy...so i was expecting to be really really really really good, like 2-3 times better than Gears of war or sth along those lines

basically right from the foundation.. when Halo first came out, it was raved about how well an FPS game will play on consoles and this game benchmarked it
if Goldeneye was a new generation in console FPS, Halo success and made a new era from it
from there on, we all got hooked from the gameplay to the storyline..
and with such a dragged cliffhanger ending in Halo 2, alot of us cant wait...
but then different people have different opinions..
u can either jump to the bandwagon, or be one of the original fans of the series......... or not.

I really enjoyed Golden Eye 007 on N64 I think that was the first time I enjoy FPS gameplay in the early days in splitscreen mode.

dude u have no idea, the games gets pretty intense once u get off the planet
Halo isnt overhyped or recognize as a good franchise for nothing.. and with 1.6 million people who pre ordered this game and the insane amount it sold the first day of release..
Gears of War and Halo are 2 completely different games despite the fact that all u do is "shoot things"
the storyline gets pretty epic.... dont give up on halo, frankly i gave up on the halo franchise the first time halo 2 came out back in '04..
then i picked up this game again once the 360 started supporting it through BC......... then i get hooked again....

| Rumor: Some Halo 3 XBOX 360’s are 65nm Falcons
Falcons seem to be just around the corner for the 'normal' consoles!

Xbox 360 is worth the money. Having xbox live is even better. But i would keep an eye out for holiday bundles coming out soon.
Gears of War
Forza 2
NHL08
Skate
Call of Duty 4 (when it comes out, beta was amazing)
Bioshock
Mass Effects (when it comes out)
Can't go wrong.
Plus the ability to try out demos on marketplace is an excellent feature.

most likely end of nov..
but even better is if ur willing to give time to wait, usually FS/BB will throw in an extra game out of the holiday bundle
but that kinda depends or how lucky u can get
sometimes FS will throw an obscured 360 game that needs to be cleared out of their stock room ie fantastic four, transformers, viva pinata, GUN etc, or sometimes they will throw in a double A game like lost planet, fight night round 3, moto gp etc...

Fight Night Round 3 is a must have if you're a fan of fighting games. The graphics and controls in that game are excellent.

ur better off getting a falcon or zephyr model of 360
trust me, the RROD is a pain in the ass no matter how Microsoft may want to make u feel better by getting ur consol fix
i hav a dec '05 360 and i had the RROD beginning of sept.. just got my console back this past fri
although the new console they sent me has a slightly quieter fan, im still thinking of getting a new 360 elite
well that is once word got out that the new 360 models are indeed more reliable than the old ones...
